Title: Excellent noise reduction in a compact design
Review: I typically prefer ear muff style hearing protection, but I’m pretty impressed with these. I’m a woodworker and maintain my yard myself, so I’ve got ample use for hearing protection. Out of the box, I was impressed by how many ear tip options were included, but a bit confused by the controls. The ear bugs were easy to pair to my phone and I was up and running quickly. First impressions were that noise reduction was as advertised and similar to my ear muffs with comparable NRR ratings. I did find them a bit uncomfortable at first, particularly the cord connecting the two and the ear hooks with my glasses. However, after using them for a couple hours, I got more used to putting them in and taking them out, and I found them to be less noticeable. I still think ear muffs or buds without a connecting wire are more comfortable for all day comfort, but these are much more compact and compatible with headgear like sun hats and hard hats. I’ll appreciate this aspect when I’m mowing the lawn in the summer and benefit from wearing a wide brimmed hat. The aware feature is pretty unique and another selling point. I usually work alone, but when my wife is trying to get my attention in the workshop, the aware feature makes it much easier for me to hear her. I found battery life to last at least all day when listening to music which seems respectable. Overall, these are pretty expensive for hearing protection and catered towards professional and industrial users rather than casual use. For casual use, my AirPod Pros are more comfortable and have comparable levels of noise cancellation. However, AirPods don’t have an NRR rating or claim to provide hearing protection. If you need real hearing protection and want to be able to listen to music while being able to hear coworkers and wear a head covering, I think these are one of the best options and worth the cost.

Title: Very good, but uncomfortable for me
Review: I think this is very specific to me, because I do have trouble with most earbuds, but I find these uncomfortable out of the box. I don’t love the foam tips. Those don’t last very long, and they push wax into your ear. I’ll probably try to set up some sort of custom molded earplug thing.For most people, this will probably be excellent. Especially if you can use the rubber earplug tips. The usability is quite good. When there’s a proper seal, you get a nice level of hearing protection, while amplifying sounds you want. It makes things quite clear. If they were more comfortable, I’d probably use them all the time, because they totally make the world clearer.The controls are intuitive and easy to remember. You can play sound from your phone into these as well. The battery life isn’t huge, but will get you through a working day. I’d really like a couple more hours to make it through lunch and a charging case though.It is pricey, but for people who are looking for something like this (this is really a work device, for those of us who work in loud environments), it’s worth the price, I’d say. It’s a quality device, by my testing so far.

Title: I use these daily in my shop when grinding & cutting. Plus you can listen to musical music
Review: I really needed these. I use these daily in the shop while grinding, cutting. When turned on they really do the trick you can’t hear anything and at the same time I’m listening to my music. This comes with 3 different types of foam tips that you can change to get better hearing protection. They don’t hurt my ears which I’ve had a problem with EarPods. Another thing I really like about these is the battery life. They last me all day and most of the next day. A push of a button makes it so you can hear a conversation when talking and once pushed it goes back to no noise.What’s better than listening to your favorite music while your hearing is being protected.The only con I have is that it takes me a couple mins to get these in my ears. I’m sure as more time goes by I’ll get better at putting these in my ears.

Title: Nice features… execution isn’t quite there, though
Review: As someone who suffers from tinnitus due to past long-term exposure to loud sounds, I now work hard to help protect my hearing. These earbuds assist me with that – providing OSHA-certified noise reduction – while also allowing me to listen to music AND staying aware of my surroundings when needed.I have primarily used these in my home workshop, where they do a great job of protecting my ears from grinding and cutting metal as well as while working with wood using my table saw or router. I like that they pair seamlessly with my Android phone and let me stream music or a podcast while I’m working. I also like that I can use the same earbuds in a ‘passthrough’ mode that allows me to carry on a conversation when I’m working with a friend or family member on a project in the workshop… while still keeping the same OSHA-certified hearing protection. It’s also nice to be able to adjust how loud I want that passthrough sound to be. I can see this passthrough feature also being helpful in some of my past work environments where it’s important to remain aware of heavy equipment moving around you while still protecting your hearing.Unfortunately, there are some aspects of these earbuds that I find troublesome.The first, and perhaps most challenging, is that the ‘over-the-ear’ part of the earbuds doesn’t play well with either eyeglasses or safety glasses. There also isn’t any provision for changing the earhook out for another attachment method, which leaves them causing discomfort after just an hour or so of wear.The second issue is that the foam seals expand far too quickly, making it difficult to get a proper seal in the ear canal. If the foam expanded at a slightly slower rate (much like a traditional earplug) it would ensure the earbud could be fully inserted and ensure a good seal – very critical to ensure the NRR is being reached. As it is, I’ve found the flanged silicone tips do work to provide a good seal, but they’re nowhere near as comfortable to wear for more than a couple of hours at a time.So, overall, I like these earbuds and will continue to use them… and hopefully this feedback can help further refine future models, as they really fill an important niche (in my opinion).
